The Kamloops region offers several championship layouts carved into incredibly diverse landscapes. Rated as the British Columbia PGA’s Golf Facility of the year in 2005,

Sun Rivers, voted by Golf Digest in 2003 as western Canada’s best new course, is one of the very few true ‘desert courses’ in Canada. Sagebrush and sand dunes augment the course’s many dramatic elevation changes. The Robert Trent Jones Sr. designed
